Campus Life

Welcome Week marks the beginning of your life at Saint Mary’s

As a new student, you will enjoy Welcome Weeks filled with social events and educational activities designed to help you make connections with your fellow students, the residence or off-campus Saint Mary’s community, and faculty and professors.

Throughout Welcome Weeks, you will connect with support systems and resources, meet student leaders and members of the Saint Mary’s community, and participate in fun and safe events and activities.

The purpose of Welcome Weeks is to offer a variety of opportunities that set new students up for success, while being inclusive and reflecting the values and culture of the University.

The Welcome Weeks period at Saint Mary’s is the beginning of a series of successful transitions: social, academic, and for many, cultural. We recognize that not all of these transitions are complete after the first week, and as such, orientation is an on-going process that will include activities throughout the year.
